Although police did not completely buy his guilt, he knew more things about the crime than any average individual would. He was given a cardboard cutout to reenact the scene and he did.

Daou said that he committed the murder in order to launch a music career. He said he would “be a really good rapper” is he killed someone because “people talk about that killer stuff.” After the murder, Daou said that he went for a smoke. While there all by himself, Stewart’s ghost flew behind him haunting him. Daou said that he witnesses her ghost multiple times a day.

One would think that killing someone is the end of it all. It is not. These 10 criminals are a vivid example of what happens when murder takes place. Whether hallucinations or actual ghost appearances, a life is not meant to be taken at will.
